The monitor turns off and on repeatedly.

It comes on and shows the picture but then turns off and comes back on and shows the picture and turns off again repeatedly. It seems to keep doing this forever. It is getting power and is connected to the computer or it wouldn't show the picture. the screen comes on when i turn it off then back on but only for a sec and when i press the source button then after about 1 sec the screen goes dark it doesnt turn off tho cuz you can barely see the picture on the screen its almost as if the LCD is not working

Screen goes blank when first turned on, have to keep restarting m

Hello,

If you turn the monitor off then about 1020 sec turn it back on and have a picture for five sec again it sound like the power supply in the monitor. but if that did not solve the problem, the picture board on your monitor is bad, since it goes off after few seconds and the power led or button is on, it means the picture board of your monitor has developed fault and will need to be replace.

I advice you replace the picture board on the screen of your monitor to solve the problem of the blank screen.

Take care.

Dell E152FP monitor after startup or coming back from standby the screen will show up and 5 seconds later it disappears. I turn off the monitor and turn it back on. The image comes back again but it...

Hello

Probably the monitor. LCD monitors use electrolytic capactors which change value with heat. The power board in yours probably has 6 to 8 caps whic need replacement. Take it to a reputable repair person or check out my websit.

Thanks

your monitor is beleiving it is not receiving any signal from your pc. 1 make sure your cables are secure. 2 make sure your pc is on. 3 borrow a monitor from a freind to see if your pc is sending the signal out, if the borrowewed monitor is showing a picture, hook yours back up. 4 if still not picture your mpcb or video pcb in the monitor is bad.

Is it desktop or laptop computer?
If its desktop the data cable might be loose on the back of the desktop computer.

The monitor turns off and on repeatedly.

There is a loose connector on the cable or the cable attachment on the PC board. Jiggle the connector as its connected and see if this causes the LCD to fire up.

Unstable picture and EEPROM problem

Undo what you did & it should hopefuly work.
Next time don't be overconfident and do things that you are not sure of. It doesn't hurt to ask someone who knows. Here you are lucky to escape with this one. I've come across cases where people have ended up short-circuiting their gadgets beyond repair.

If you have the previlege of having a manual, refer it, read every word carefully and then go about doing things on your own.
